Smoothie Hints
Smoothies are a yummy and filling way to get all kinds of "good for you" things into your diet. Here are some smoothie basics.
Use a combination of fresh and frozen fruit. The frozen fruit will make it cold without diluting the flavor. Bananas, as well as apples, are great for adding sweetness.
Choose just a couple types of fruit.
Add raw honey or maple syrup as a sweetener if needed.
It is so easy to add probiotics, some greens (spinach, lettuce, etc), liquid vitamin D, chia seed gel, egg shell water, ground flax seed, apple seeds, etc. to boost the nutritional value. Hannah doesn't like green smoothies so if adding greens I usually make sure and use blueberries to make it purple instead. :)
Raw milk, Kiefer, raw milk yogurt, or juice work wonderfully to thin the smoothie to the desired consistency.
Don't forget to add a splash of vanilla for extra yumminess! :)
